[openbox] Desktop switching delay

After toying around with some of GNOME 3's new features, I've started
using dynamic desktops to organise my work a lot more. One thing I've
noticed, and I was wondering if anyone could confirm it, is that when
switching between windows on different desktops, sometimes the window
gets flagged as URGENT but the desktop isn't switched.
For example, I have a Main workspace and a IM/Mail workspace.
Thunderbird sits on the IM/Mail one, and when switching from urxvt
[Main] to Thunderbird [IM/Mail], Thunderbird will flash in the window
list on Xfce4-panel, but urxvt will keep the focus, and so I have to
click on the icon in the panel to focus Thunderbird.
(This doesn't occur all the time, only occasionally, and if it's a
mistake in my configuration settings I would have thought that it'd
occur all the time.)
For the record, my window-switching bindings are:
<keybind key="A-Tab">
<action name="NextWindow">
<bar>no</bar>
<dialog>yes</dialog>
<raise>no</raise>
</action>
</keybind>
<keybind key="A-S-Tab">
<action name="PreviousWindow">
<bar>no</bar>
<dialog>yes</dialog>
<raise>no</raise>
</action>
</keybind>
<keybind key="W-Tab">
<action name="NextWindow">
<allDesktops>yes</allDesktops>
<bar>no</bar>
<dialog>yes</dialog>
</action>
</keybind>
<keybind key="W-S-Tab">
<action name="PreviousWindow">
<allDesktops>yes</allDesktops>
<bar>no</bar>
<dialog>yes</dialog>
</action>
</keybind>
